Cpu temps on i7 2600k

First time builder here; after a doa motherboard and shorting i finally got my compouter to post and boot for the first time. first thing i noticed was that the cpu temps were really high hovering at around 60 degrees C at idle. from what i have read this seems far from normal but since its upper limit is around 98 degrees C should i be worried? fan is currently around 1550 rpm. The computer should shut off if it gets too hot right? will a new version of the bios help and/or upping the fan speed on the heatsink help? thanks in advance
